Ross Street Roasting

Roasting beans is an art... stop by this shop on the weekends to enjoy an amazing creation of makade-mashkiki-waboo (translated from Ojibwemowin - black-medicine-liquid). My partner ordered a red-eye, our friend ordered a nitro-cold brew with a shot of expresso and I ordered an iced coffee with an expresso.

The beans are outstanding - interesting varieties and origins, expertly roasted to bring out their best characteristics, fresh/shipped right after roasting (the "Brix Breaker" may be the best cup I've ever brewed - and the novelty factor of the almost comically large Pacamara beans is pretty great, too).

I stumbled upon this company on accident while looking for a Christmas gift for my boyfriend and thought the coffee subscription was a cool idea and the bag design caught my eye too!

What a treat to find in Tama! Brian and his family are a delight. We chatted for a while and enjoyed the coffee! Brought home 2 bags and some espresso to CO and will return when we are visiting family in the area. If you love coffee, find his products. You will not be disappointed!
